Jesus was born in a manger in a stable. His father worked with his hands as a carpenter. After He left home, so far as is known he had no home of His own but depended upon the kindness of friends and strangers. When He died, He was buried in a borrowed grave.
By all acounts, Jesus was not a wealthy person. When confronted by a rich young man who wanted advice, Jesus told him to sell all that he had, give the money to the poor, and follow me. Jesus had warnings for the rich, telling them it would be especially hard for them to enter the Kingdom of God. My guess is that rich people fall in love with riches and find it hard to follow Jesus' teachings because of that.
